What I don't like about this case is that it sets a precedent to make perceived 'homophobic' assaults more serious than assaults on 'normal' people so that homosexuals will be classed as special cases - in other words more important than normal people. These two moronic thugs have moved the totalitarian society up another notch. They deserve their sentences for their sheer stupidity.

But seriously, they`re scumbags and in the right place for them. I don`t care if the victim was a poof, he didn`t deserve to die just for being one. And they might have just as easily attacked a straight bloke in the wrong place at the wrong time. Brainless scum, I hope they rot.

There was somthing odd about this murder, when the mother of the person murdered appeared on television, she was surrounded by very large minders, there is more to this story than meets the eye.

I’ll second that - apparently while they were beating him up they stuffed a sock into his mouth to keep him quiet. Where’s this sock come from? Your in the middle of beating some one up you don’t stop to remove your shoes and take off your socks.

I agree. Worthless scum like these two should be swinging on the end of a piece of rope in a half-way decent society but making a criminal's sentence higher just because their victim fell into a PC category is fundamentally wrong. If your much-loved grandmother was killed by a mugger on the street would the criminal get a similar sentence to these two? No, it appears they wouldn't and that is a disgrace because the grandmother's life is just as valuable as a gay man's life.

New Labour and the Tories are obsessed with PC and are both fans of George Orwell's novel Animal Farm where all pigs are equal but some are more equal than others!
